Taksim restaurants (Istiklal Caddesi)

Taksim Restaurants

Having dinner in the side streets of Istiklal Caddesi in Taksim Istanbul is not upscale per se but it is a “must do” when you live or are on holidays in Istanbul. The Taksim area is the nightlife centre of Istanbul and there is a constant “positive” fuss around here; 24/7 and 7 days per week. You can’t find anything like this in any other city in the world. So if you don’t like the busy madness of a metropool this won’t be anything for you. However, if you like energie, people, music, noise, etc this is the place to be.
